Joint Wont Burn :(

[ozman]

Hey everybody,I got nothing against a bong or pipe,but it would be nice to be able to smoke a joint.
I have read in the past (many moons ago)that nutes would effect the burning of material,it burns ok in my bong and pipe,but to get a joint to burn,thats another question altogether,it doesnt matter how dry or crispy the material is it will not burn without keeping fire on it.

If anybody has any ideas Im listening lol.............





:watchplant::lama:

Nutes doesn't have anything to do with it, bro...just let the joint dry out a bit, then roll it back n forth with the palm of your hand across a table to create some airflow between the paper and the bud..you'll be blazin away on no time

you need to a crusher probably to make it all powdery and add some tobacco to burn properly , just 30% of tobacco.

 

[JBonez]

has it been dried and cured properly?

i can smoke bud right of the stem freshly cut, i just put in the oven on 170 for about 20 min, then let it cool down, nice and crispy ready to be smoked!

i do flush pretty good tho, hmm....

I'm a long time joint smoker--don't care much for the bong, haven't tried the vaporizer. Your medium has to be somewhat dry. It needs to be shredded as fine as your patience will allow, either by fingers or scissors. Contemporary pot is very resinous and can't be rolled tightly. Moisten your fingers so you don't get any newbie-lap at the beginning (will make your joint run). Roll slowly with more emphasis and pressure on the toking end--slightly more emphasis. The middle should finish before the ends--lick that thang. Roll over and lick both end portions of your skin. Pinch one end and puff on the other and collapse it slightly. If a joint runs, put it out and open up the side that's not burning by pinching the paper into a long tent. If you've got a small sharp device (not advised if you're real high) push it under the paper at the long part of the run, give it air. If all else fails, curt the joint into pieces and smoke it in your bong. That'll be ten dollars everyone who reads this.

After I roll one, I lick the entire thing down (I know it sounds gross), then take my lighter and wave it under the J while slowly turning it. This causes the paper to get cripsy and prevents runners from occuring (where the joint burns down on one side unevenly) since you are wetting the entire paper and then drying it with the heat from the lighter, not just the one side where you sealed the J. Burns even every time.

All these guys have good points. I don't understand the need to lick the finger tips before rolling, but it kind of makes sense. So, Pencil Head, you wet your fingers, roll your doob and the lick the entire thing? I like how you pinch down on the non smoking end. You said that you crimp down a bit on the toking end as well?

I've always been to cheap to buy smoking paraphernalia, so a I always carry a pack of Zig Zags. I'm fairly a good roller of the basic joint, but this advice will make me better.

There nothing lie a nice joint on a walk. For that I should roll a secret agent. However, I normally smoke in a safe place such as my house, but very rarely out in public anymore.

Thanks for the hints, PencilHead

Thanks

I OWE you $50 whats wrong pencil no tobacco thrown in there ... come to aussie and pass this message on ..i like ya style ..take note crozar !!..but personally i use two papers joined together width ways gotta be ZIG -ZAGS blue for slow burning ...or a bible cut into paper sizes or bigger (the whole page for special occasions )..gotta be dry bud as well..rip it ..chop it ..roll it with a paper tube in the end ..for no roach puposes !!..deep throat lick it.. smoke it .. if it crackles and pops throw it my way so i can open a seed bank in OZ ! peace !

u u se pretty much the same method i use except on my puffing end i take a pencil and roll the paper back inwards making a cup shape.... try it somethime. ts hard to explain. but it allows for more air frol and absolutly no runs at all

 

[dr_toker81]

u have to lick your fingers so the gooie goodness doesnt stick to them so it doesnt make it harder to twist up...

To the OP sounds like you've got to get a bit better at rolling your J's. Take the advise of PH and NYC then just add a crutch at the end and you've got yourself a sweet joint. I use a thin strip of cardboard strait off the rolling paper case.

I remember 20 some odd years ago a guy had come home for leave from the army I think,he stated he could roll a joint that was killer,so I took him up on his offer.
He proceeded to roll a average looking joint till he got to the end that we would smoke on and took a piece of a playing card just like the aforementioned paper tube,or paper cover cardboard same effect,but he was right it was killer.That was the only time I ever smoked a j like that mite havta do sometime with some other ppl I know hehe watchem cough and gag,I wont laugh hehe I wont laugh hehe ........like hell I wont I will LMAO .....


Peace to All

Hey TEG,that is an awesome DIY on a cone I will have to try that always wondered how they was rolled, but it was always easier to just grab the bong or pipe lol hmm (no motivation syndrome kicking in)then to try to figure it out.
Thanx

Oh man you've got to use a crutch. Not only does it let you take much bigger rips but you don't have to use a roach clip when it gets to the end.

 

[The Effen Gee]

I stopped needing crutches years ago.

Its all in the roll and the paper chosen.

 

[lordhighlama]

I guess I just don't like sucking in little bits of resinous bud while taking a rip.
